I bought these a while back when my Vet recommended I get "a good, strong, cotton wrap" for my horse's torn tendon. These were PERFECT! A little bulky, but after awhile, you get the "hang" of wrapping with them. (Works effectively with velcro leg wraps over top to keep in place). They are soft enough not to hurt or stick to skin and WASHABLE. Thats a PLUS....considering my horse is ALWAYS rolling in dirt or playing in the water then the dirt....LOL. His tendon is much better and I still have all 4 wraps in case I need them:)
